Chauvin Trial - Day 2
[LegalInsurrection] Today saw the Chauvin court wrap up the testimony of martial arts and security "expert" Douglas Williams, a bystander witness to Floyd’s in-custody death. It also saw the state proceed through four women I’ll refer to as the "minor witnesses," because they were bystander witnesses who under 18 years of age at the time of the incident. Finally, the state brought the firefighter bystander witness to the stand, with court recessing partway through the defense cross-examination of her.The most interesting event of the day was certainly during the testimony of the firefighter, when Judge Cahill cleared the jury from the room and scolded her for being argumentative with the defense during cross, before sending her to bed with no dinner and telling her to come back to the courtroom for further cross at 9:30am tomorrow (kidding about the bed and dinner part). Chauvin's lawyer seems to be missing opportunities  Related: Chauvin: 2021-03-26 20-Year Catholic High School Teacher Gets Fired for Questioning Whether George Floyd Couldn't Breathe Chauvin: 2021-03-25 Target has announced in an email to employees that it will be abandoning its primary downtown Minneapolis location Chauvin: 2021-03-12 George Floyd memorial site reportedly now an anti-cop autonomous zone Posted by: Mercutio 2021-03-31 |
